Why We Built Perry

Perry was born out of a simple frustration: money advice never made sense for people living on real Philippine salaries. Most tips online talk in dollars and theories, but here, every peso already has a purpose. Rent. Food. Family. A bit of joy. Perry was built to be the financial companion that listens first, speaks simply, and guides you through your salary life without guilt. It’s not about being perfect with money. It’s about finally feeling in control of it.
